P4O10
Is two nonmetals in a covalent bond.
P4O10 is a covalent compound. This is because Phosphorous and Oxygen are both nonmetals.
P4O10 is a covalent compound. It consists of nonmetals (phosphorus and oxygen) bonded together through sharing of electrons, resulting in a molecular structure.
You misunderstand between 'IONIC' and 'COMPOUND'. All substances , except elements, are COMPOUNDS. Compounds may then be divided into three types of bonding, they are IONIC, COVALENT and METALLIC. P4O10 (Phosphorus Pentoxide) is a COMPOUND. However, it is bonded COVALENTLY, by electrons sharing with adjacent atoms. (A bit like linking arms). To compare NaCl ( Sodium Chloride) is a COMPOUND. However, it is bonded IONICALLY. By electrons being lost or gained to form ions. Oppositely charged ions come together by Electrostatic Attraction, a bit like the N & S Poles of a magnet.
P4O4 is not a chemical compound. P4O10 is a covalent compound. P and O always form covalent bonds.
P4O10 + 6H2O = 4H3PO4 Phosphorus oxide reacst with water to produce phosphoric acid.

Diphosphorus pentoxide (P4O10) is a covalent compound. It is composed of nonmetals (phosphorus and oxygen) which typically form covalent bonds by sharing electrons.
P4O10 is an acidic compound because it reacts with water to form phosphoric acid (H3PO4).
P4O10 is acidic.
P4O10 - P for Phosphorous, 4 for tetra; O for oxygen, 10 for dec-.
The compound P4O10 is named tetraphosphorus decoxide.
P4O10 is a solid element. It is a combination of phosphorus and oxygen.
Since 14 (4+10) moles of P4O10 contains 4 moles of Phosphorus, 8 moles of P4O10 will contain :: (8 x 4)/14 = 2.286 moles of Phosphorus
